According to their website, Neo Dia craft `unique magical prêt-à-porter collections’. And it couldn’t describe the collection more accurately. The Neo Dia design duo, Gavin Lowes and Becky Chua have mastered sharp tailoring techniques, drawing on their inspirations from the great architectural-art magicians – Gehry, Bauhaus and others – that really give this emerging label its backbone. The architectural application is shown in the obvious sculptural references, the clothing moulds the body to enhance its shape and sometimes propose new features that previous clothing collections are yet to distinguish.
Both graduates of fashion at renowned institution RMIT (Melbourne, Australia) Gavin and Becky met on the first day of the course and `have been stitched at the hip ever since’.
“With individual aesthetics so aligned, a collaboration between the two young designers was impossible to resist. Neo Dia was born of a shared vision for modern, ready-to-wear collections with a sassy algebraic twist.”
We were delighted to introduce Neo Dia to the Fashion Exposed show floor as recent finalists in the DEBUT competition for the Sydney event. Their awe-inspiring pieces were marveled by many, replicated by none.
